My Beloved Lost Poem by Mark Meck

I have had pain in rain
With aches from sprains and strains
I have endured labour unattended
But I found strength to live

I have fallen from mountain tops
My misery and misfortunes all at the tip
I have had economic woes like the ills of war
But still I found strength to live

You gave me the strength to stand
As you were the reason to start afresh, a shelter of love and happiness
You were the blood in my veins, my heart throb and thud
Indeed, with you I was blessed

I have had pain in rain, I endured it
I have had misery and misfortune
Ills of war, economic hardship and desertion, I soldiered on
Till I lost you-Oh, how vulnerable I am

Remember me in your heavenly days
Till we are reunited in spirit
I cherish your love in smiles of love and care
Which though lost, I will find in the hope of second life, my beloved.
